just my opinion, though.

In my past life with Lucent/Avaya I have installed many DS1C connected remote EPNs (though I have never done a G650) so I won't disagree with the above statement. There are many factors to consider and I have listed some below.
How many T1s are you going to use? You can have up to four of them. One T1 has 1.44M bandwidth, will that be enough with a stack of carriers? You will use external 3150 CSUs with this and the options are not the default options. If you have more than one T1 it is absolutely critical that they be connected in the same sequence at each end. There are NO tests for these T1s in the switch (because the T1s do not connect directly to the switch), if there is a problem you have to go look at the CSUs to see what the lights display and then call the T1 vendor.
The Y cable that connects the TN1654 to the TN570 (and TN573) is prone to having problems, I did one job where I went through eight of them before finding two that worked.
The only difference in programming is on the fiber page where you answer yes to the question of whether this is connected by DS1C, this will give you a second page where you enter the DS1C parameters.
You can try doing this using this forum to assist just be aware that if you post a question here, it might be a day or more before you get an answer.
